Animal Kingdom Eats, Drinks, and Menu Changes

First, let’s address these changes at Satu’li Canteen. One is actually a great new addition: Combination Bowls!

Updated Menu at Satu’li Canteen now with Combination Bowl!

That’s right! Now diners can order their bowl with grilled beef and chicken! This is great if you can’t decide between the two — or if you’re sharing a Bowl and both want something different!

It’s still a substantial portion of food, too, as we’ve come to expect at Satu’li, and it still comes topped with your choice of sauce, some cole slaw, and a few popping pearls.

The Grilled Beef is as delicious as ever.

And the Chicken is great too — lightly spiced and with some good color.

The other change at Satu’li is the removal of the Quinoa and Vegetable Salad Base. It’s been replaced by Rice and Black Beans. This is a bit of a bummer for those who enjoy quinoa. But the rice and black beans are tasty, with some mild spices and finely diced veggies mixed in.

The Restaurantosaurus menu has seen some noticeable changes. The Hot Dogasauraus has been removed, and a Battered Fish Entree has been added. Also, the menu now specifies that “Entrees 1, 2, 5, and 6 Include Topping Bar“. We don’t know how they’ll be keeping track of this, as previously it was implied that any meal came with the Topping Bar, and there’s no one stationed to guard the toppings…

The Vegetarian Burger description has been updated from “Vegetarian Black Bean Burger” to “Black Bean Burger with Provolone.” And Chili has been removed as a side option.

Dessert is now a Warm Chocolate Caramel Brownie. Previously it was a Warm Chocolate Turtle Brownie. It looks similar, but the current version no longer has the nuts on top.

Changes to Restaurantosaurus Menu

The Drinks menu at Restaurantosaurus has also seen two changes. The Cretaceous Cooler (which we enjoyed!) has been removed, and a Lime Margarita has been added.

End Zone Food Court at All-Star Sports has a Plant-Based Chicken Quesadilla

The BLT Flatbread has been removed, and a Margherita Flatbread has been added.

There’s also a new Brie and Apple Grilled Cheese. That sounds delicious!

The Brisket Burger has been removed at All-Star Sports and replaced by a Barbecued Pulled Pork Burger.

And the Carrot Cake Cupcake here has been redesigned. It’s now sparkly.

Comments

We actually cancelled our Tiffins reservation after discovering the change to the beef dish. With it being the same price and seemingly removing the short rib from the equations, I wanted to see some reviews first. Unfortunate, as that was a fantastic dish.

Also, we stopped at Satuli Tavern and I KNEW I had a different dish on my last visit and kept thinking I was crazy that I thought they had quinoa as a base. You clarified things for me. And I’m disappointed with that change as well as I’d rarher have a different option than two rice bases.

I am sooooooo disappointed they took away the kale/quinoa choice at Satu’li. That was my favorite to go with the grilled chicken. I live very close to WDW and frequently go there just to have one of my favorite meals. AND, it is getting increasingly difficult to find HEALTHY options……..beans and rice….bleech….

Nice to see the All Stars adding to their menu options, as we usually stay at Music and make use of all three food courts. That brie and apple sandwich looks great for us non-meat eaters. Now if only they would bring back those huge oatmeal raisin cookies I loved so much. I would consume several each trip. The fancy cupcakes are fun but all things being equal, I’d rather have that chewy, satisfying cookie with my hot tea.
